Sweetest of all
Chapter 3:
"Is there something you needed Bakura?" Ryou tilted his head.
"Oh, yeah... Do you want to go out to dinner tonight?"
"Sure! I'm tired of eating inside." Ryou got up, "Can we go in about two hours?"
"Okay." Then Ryou went upstairs.
Bakura sighed and sat down at the table. Ryou's dad walked in and sat down with him, his dad didn't hate Bakura like Ryou's mom. "Hey Bakura."
"Hello."
"What's wrong kid?"
Bakura hated it when he called him kid, "Uh, nothing."
"Thinking about popping the question to Ryou?"
"Huh?" Bakura looked up at him, stunned.
"Dad's can always tell."
"Oh..." Bakura blushed.
He smiled, "I think he'll say yes, so don't worry. You have my blessing, his mother might be a little...harder to break the news to."
"I know... she hates me."
"She doesn't hate you. She just doesn't like the idea of her son being in love with a boy..."
"..." Bakura got up, "I have to go get ready."
"Good-luck."
Bakura got up and wandered into the other room. He sat down and thought about his proposal over and over again.
In about an hour he went upstairs and took a shower. It wasn't very often that Bakura or Ryou took separate showers or baths. Usually they'd be together but they would never get very clean so later they would have to take another one.
After Bakura's shower he went into their room and got dressed. He wanted it to be casual so be dressed in blue jeans, a t-shirt, and a black button up shirt that he left unbuttoned. The ring was in his pocket.
He starred at himself in the mirror and sighed.
"Hey, you ready?" Ryou was behind him in the doorway.
Bakura turned around and scanned him with his eyes. He was wearing blue jeans, a t-shirt, and a blue button up shirt that he also left unbuttoned. They looked like twins, very sexy twins.
"Yeah... I'm ready."
They walked down stairs, Bakura behind Ryou. Ryou opened the door, "Bye dad."
"Bye you guys." His dad was sitting on the couch. "Have fun." As Bakura walked out he gave him a wink.
Bakura smiled, and then closed the door. They got in the car and Bakura drove off.
"So, Bakura. Where do you want to go?"
"Huh? Oh, wherever you want."
Ryou looked out the window, "Well, how about that French restaurant down the street?"
"Okay." Bakura twisted his mouth a little. 'French food? Yuck! They eat snails... Why would you pay good money for something you can scrape off your shoe?!'
They got to the restaurant and went inside. When they sat down Ryou smiled at Bakura, "Hey what's wrong?"
"Wrong? Nothing, why?"
"You just seem a little anxious."
"Oh, anxious? Nope, not me."
"Well, okay."
Across the room were a lady and a man sitting at a table. They were talking quietly then the man brought out a ring, "Lizzie, will you marry me?"
Bakura and Ryou started to listen out of curiosity.
"Oh Randy, that's very sweet but I can't. I'm in love with someone else." She pointed her finger by the door and the hostess winked and blew a kiss. "I have to go, Randy." With that she got up and left.
The man (Randy) sat in his seat absolutely devastated. He fell forwards right into his boiling hot soup and didn't move a muscle. Eventually someone came and took him away.
Bakura swallowed hard and looked at Ryou. 'Oh Ra!'
"Goodness. I feel sorry for that guy."
"Me too..." Bakura sat back and sighed. 'I hope I don't end up like him.' He turned to Ryou. "Um, I have to make a phone call."
He got up and went towards the bathrooms, he took out his cell and dialed Marik and Malik's house number. Ring, Ring, Ring!
"Hello?" It was Marik.
"Hey, Marik. It's me."
"Ooh! Did you ask him yet?"
"No, were at the restaurant. Listen, there was this couple and the guy proposed and the lady turned lesbian right on the spot!"
"What?!"
"Yeah..."
"Uh... I don't think Ryou can turn lesbian."
Malik grabbed the phone from his yami, "Who's turning lesbian?"
"I don't think this marrying thing is gonna work, Malik."
"Don't be dumb. Of course it will. Just remember what we taught you and above all don't be a chicken."
"Okay... Bye." He hung up the phone and walked back to their table.
"Who was it?" Ryou asked.
"My mentors."
"Uh... Okay."
After they ate, Bakura paid the bill and they got into the car.
"Ryou, do you want to go to that park we went to one time?"
"Yeah! It's a good thing were going now because all the stars are out."
"Okay." Bakura started to drive, lucky for him the Star Park wasn't far from the restaurant. His heart felt like it was going to jump out of his chest.
They got there and got out of the car. They walked in through the gates and saw only a couple kids there. Bakura smiled to himself.
Ryou sat down on the side of the water fountain and motioned for Bakura to do the same. Bakura gave a shy smile and sat down.
Ryou put his head on Bakura' s shoulder and sighed, "The stars sure are beautiful..."
"Yeah..." Bakura looked down at him, then felt the ring in his pocket. 'If I don't do it now...I'll never get it done.'
"Ryou."
"Hmm?"
"Well..." Bakura took out the ring but kept it concealed from Ryou's eyes. "You know that I love you very much and I..."
"I love you too, Bakura."
He sighed and opened his hand so that Ryou could see the ring. "Will you marry me?"
"Bakura..." Ryou's eyes watered and he starred at the ring. "Bakura, I..." He grabbed his yami and kissed him. Bakura was a little surprised, he ran his fingers through Ryou's hair and gently broke the kiss.
When he looked into Ryou's eyes, they were soaked with tears. "Did...did that mean yes?"
Ryou hugged him one more time and even more tears ran down his cheeks, "Yes."
